East London

[BrilloPad]

Do people there really eat eels in jelly and sew buttons all over their clothes whilst making a living as a racist taxi driver?

Only those above the Thames. Sarf of the river is alot more civilized.

Up Catford Dogs, Nahta mean?

And the Richardsons were proper villians. Not like those nancy boy Krays.

No, there are a few who fit that exact description in SW.

I seem to recall that Charlie had a farm on the Gower until he got caught with a slightly different type of charlie....

No, I didn't.

My old mum (bless her) said the Eastend was brilliant 50 years ago. Has it changed then?

Yes, they've rebuilt it.

[Charles Foster Kane]

Yes, they've rebuilt it.

East London wasn't (re)built in a day, you know.

Many years ago I was having lunch with the permies at the then clientco and they were discussing the then new London marathon through the East End. One bright spark said in all sincerity, “I didn’t like the look of where they went from the aerial shots. The place looked like a bomb hit it”.

I am sorry, it sux, junkies, cocky kids with knives, everybody p!ssed off there heads the whole time, tulipe council blocks, rentals only realistically about 25% higher in West London

I have toughed it out for 4.5 years, now no more, think its actually got worse.

So I am off to West London, goodbye East London, wont miss you

Which part are you in then? People are not generally p!ssed out of their heads where I am, their religion doesn't allow it. Of course, the smell of cannabis does hang heavy in the air instead......

Over the past 20 years I have lived in Bow, Forest Gate, East Ham, Poplar, but have never felt safer than I do now ....... in a gated community next to Canary Wharf. I've only been robbed at knife point once in all that time ......
